Yes, like most of my packages.
posh does not provide any benefit over dash, so I have no plan to
cripple my scripts to support posh and I urge other maintainers to do
the same.
Hint:
md@wonderland:~$size /bin/bash /bin/dash /bin/posh
text data bss dec hex filename
643347 22456 19004 684807 a7307 /bin/bash
79407 896 10236 90539 161ab /bin/dash
97890 4524 0 102414 1900e /bin/posh
md@wonderland:~$
(Feel free to add more meaningful benchmarks.)
